Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have rich traditions that distinguish them from other minority-serving or predominately white institutions. Increasing diversity among faculty at this HBCU has generated needs for cross-cultural dialogues and discussions around the unique history and mission of an HBCU, particularly among new International and Foreign-born faculty. This poster reports on a one-day new faculty forum designed to prepare new faculty to engage in cross-cultural dialogue and learn about methods of teaching in culturally responsive and inclusive ways. Data was collected on the event through reflective focus group conversations and follow-up surveys with participants.
